Google says Architecture

It’s official, I am becoming ‘that guy’ who google searches ‘architecture’ in his spare time just for fun. Ordinarily I wouldn’t go around publicizing this kind of outrageously dorky behavior, but I found the image results to be kind of interesting.

Field Trip

The last time I went to the Statue of Liberty was in 2nd grade. It was fun, I guess.
I was in no rush to go back.
Yesterday I took a cold ferry ride out there with Marc Tsurumaki from LTL Architects with our studio from Columbia GSAPP. I have to admit, the copper lady really blew [...]
